Real Estate

Location quality in real estate — walkability, transit access, proximity to schools and retail — demands spatial answers. GOAT gives developers, consultants, and housing departments the tools to evaluate and communicate location quality precisely, from site selection to parking demand modelling.

The difference

Why GOAT?

  • Planning indicators and GIS tools, ready and easy to use

    Walking, cycling, driving and public transport accessibility for any address, scored on what residents can actually reach: transport stops, schools, shops, healthcare, green space. Ready to run with your parameters. Around them sits a full toolbox of GIS and data analysis tools, so you can join, filter and aggregate your own data without leaving the browser.

    Then save the whole thing as a workflow. When the data updates or a boundary changes, run it again. Same method, new result, no rebuilding.

  • A data catalog with AI-powered search

    Over 20,000 ready-to-use datasets: population, transport networks, amenities, administrative boundaries. Describe what you need and the catalog finds it, so a plot can be assessed the day you hear about it.

  • Ready to use, open by design

    Nothing to install. Built on open-source technologies and open standards, so your data and workflows stay portable.

  • Scalable

    From one site assessment to portfolio-wide location analysis.

  • Proven in practice

    Used for residential development projects, parking demand studies and mobility concepts across Germany.
